Text

A five-way ANOVA was calculated [factors: Chemosensory Condition (anxiety condition, sport condition), Sex of Donor (male, female), Sex of Perceiver (male, female), Sagittal Line (anterior, central, posterior) and Transversal Line (left, midline, right)]. Subsequently, nested effects were calculated in accordance with Page and coworkers [32]. However, due to the small number of deviant stimuli and the poor signal-to-noise ratio for deviant stimuli, only CSERPs in response to standard stimuli were analyzed. An alpha level of p<0.05 was used for all statistical tests. Huynh-Feldt corrected degrees of freedom were calculated and corrected p-values are reported. The presentation of the CSERP results will focus on the effects including the chemosensory condition, and only significant results will be reported. Current Source Density (CSD) maps were calculated using a spherical spline model ([33], order of splines: m = 4, maximal degree of legendre polynominals = 20).
